When do fall athletes arrive on campus?

Does anyone know when members of the cross country team (or other fall sports) arrive on campus for pre-season? Can athletes do the Odyssey Program, or do the schedules conflict? Thanks much.

I have heard of athletes doing Odyssey, but I would double-check that.

I know basketball players were here for most of the summer. Soccer was here near the beginning of August. Don't know about Cross Country, but got the impression is was not a huge amount of time before everyone else.

Does the rowing program have any summer training? I know it's club, just wondering.

I would like to second the rowing question. eiffel13, where did you row in high school? It's good to see that there is at least some following, I am kind of nervous about how small crew might be at davidson

Yes, most likely you CAN do odyssey.. but odds are the dates won't work out so that you can just stay on campus afterward, so you might have to come here for odyssey, leave, then come back again for sports. Seeing as the earliest session is in July... I doubt there will be any conflict with that one.

Dates for Odyssey this year:
July 15-22
July 29-Aug 5
Aug 12-19

laxman1 - my d rows for one of the ISL schools in Mass. I believe crew is the largest
club sport at Davidson. She'll be in Worcester for NEIRA's on May 23 and is looking
forward to continuing with the sport as a Wildcat next year. Still wondering
about summer training since the fall head races come up pretty quickly.
